Get Netflix cheaper - SEE OP FOR DETAILS

UPDATE - NOT GOOD NEWS

My test low cost Euro zone account (Slovenia) was nuked by Netflix on Friday while I was away. I literally watched just one show on the account. However despite it being nuked by Netflix 15 days after setting it up they did issue a full refund.

My low cost South American dollar account hasn't been nuked yet but I feel it's just be a matter of time before that happens. I wouldn't recommend anybody set up an account with a payment card that does not match the country to which you are subscribing too.

Fwiw, I got Netflix through sky via my parents. Their sky was out of contract (tv only) and they cancelled the other week. My mother got a text asking them to ring to see if there was an offer available so I rang for her. Got the sky signature pack (the basic one) plus Netflix premium (or whatever the top tier is called) for €28ish. They had been paying €43 I think for just sky.

So if anyone is with sky, out of contract and in a punch - might help.

New account, new Revolut virtual card. Setup and then I cancelled the subscription myself. It got nuked 15 days later.

Has anyone bothered to click on "Block future payments" in the Revolut app that was paying via Turkey and got kicked out a few weeks ago by Netflix? It's telling me next payment 22 March.

Mine was on Revolut app scheduled for March 3rd and no transaction was ever processed

I think someone said Nigeria or possibly Egypt was cheaper?

I hope you don't mind the mention but is there any chance this thread could have the original post updated to reflect the recent clampdown by Netflix. It seems the same questions are being asked regularly enough to warrant an update.

(1) They seem to be nuking accounts with payment cards issued from outside the country of origin.

(2) While voucher payment on regions that accept it seems to work, some users have here and elsewhere reported these accounts getting nuked too.

(3) If nuked you may lose the money you paid out, a charge back may need to be started. In the case of an account paid with voucher your goosed. It's probably best not to stack vouchers and instead top up as required.

(4) Turkey currently is the cheapest option with payment via vouchers. You may or may not be geo-restricted and have to use a VPN to watch, user experience differs. Elsewhere it's been reported the geo lock lasts for 30 days.

(6) Other cheaper regions like Nigera don't accept vouchers and you are very likely to be nuked soon after setting your account.

(7) Password sharing is another area where user experience is different. Some people report no problems, others do. While there is a technical workaround via a private VPN it's probably beyond most average users.

(8) At the end of the day, your mileage may vary and if you set up a non-irish account do so knowing it could end at any time and you could be out of pocket.

The voucher route is very little hassle. Every 3 months I buy a few vouchers and load them onto Netflix

It takes about 5 minutes max, and 4 of that is waiting for the vouchers to come through to my email.

No hassle at all

Worst thing that happened to me was someone from the states trying to make a payment on my old revolut card....new card unfortunately wouldn't work so thats probably the case for most people once their card expires now.

Been using vouchers for over a year now, just topped up with 800TL (23.91 euro) gets me from July 5 to Oct 18 which is

a plan for 4 people so just under 7 a month by my calculations.

Long may it last....

At one stage last year or two it was under 4 euro a month however.

same..............for now, next bill date 25th.

Croatia still working for me, but early days.

Anyone having issues with buying vouchers on turgame? It wants to verify my phone number but keeps telling me number of attempts exceeded, try again in X minutes even though I only tried it once
